Dynamite supermod ReQuests, Feedback and Suggestions since: Feb 2002	Apr 19, 12 at 6:42pm ^ What Is The Biggest Risk You've Taken in Life?
	Log in to remove this sponsored message Hey. So... I'm sure a few of us have made some pretty big decisions or took some fairly large risks at some point in our lives, whether calculated or not. What is the biggest risk you've taken and, perhaps more importantly, do you regret it or did it work out for you? A few of my biggest were financial. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. I've never been one to take many physical risks, though. Flying or riding horses is probably as daring as I get. So, my risks aren't all that interesting, but I'd love to hear yours. risks, life choices, decisions ------------------- --[ReQuests, Feedback and Suggestions]--[Site/Forums Help and QA]--[Forumwide Rules]--[Forumwide FAQ]--[Supermods on Duty]--[@NeoDynamite]--

	Biggest risk I have ever taken in my life is moving out at 16. It had it's ups and downs but I feel it's working in my favor now ^^ Another risk(s) i took was sneaking out when younger. Worked real good until I got caught xD -------------------

	Risk? Moving out of my parent's house into a cheap complex hoping everything would turn out well. Only took about 6 months before someone broke in and stole everything I had of value(mainly game systems). Not many interesting things happen in my life. ------------------- Upcoming games: Grid 2 \| Remember Me \| Dynasty Warriors 8 \| Saint's Row IV \| Splinter Cell: Blacklist \| Lost Planet 3 \| Grand Theft Auto V \| Arkham Origins

	Running in front of a driving car when I was a little kid. Yeah, a pretty stupid thing for me to do. I don't know what I was thinking. -------------------

	I apparently don't take risks more than just physical stuff. Kinda mind-blowing now that I think about it. Dynamite just changed my entire night :\ ------------------- {Vanguard} {Magic} {Yu-Gi-Oh}

	I have taken a few in my time, some worked out well and some not so much. - When i was about 15 years old my mate and I went swimming in a rough part of town. Afterwards we were attacked by some local kids and beat the shit outta them. The next day about 20 of their big brothers and cousins cornered me in a phone box and askd me what i was gonna do about it. I leaned out and punched one of them... Ooh that was not a good idea. I got seven shades of shit kicked out of me that day. The irony was they beat my ass about 10 metres from a police station, so close.... - I have driven far too fast and crashed a couple of motorbikes in the past. Usually my own fault. luckily all the accidents have turned out well and i have escaped with a few broken bones or concussion and some light damage to my bikes. They tend to magicaly stop nice and slowly. Touch wood. I dont drive the way i used to anymore, it was suicidal when i look back. I see now that didnt have the skills to match the speed back then. - Going down on my old GF was always risky. Luckily, im still here. Scuba gear.

	cant think of the biggest risk i have taken, but i know that the biggest risk i will take in the future is moving out of home, and to another country, presumably alone. -------------------

	^ 2 years ago i left the nest and bought a new house with my girlfriend (our first house) and you do make a good point. It is inherintly risky: - Have i made the right choice ? - Do the finances work out ? - Are we in the right place relationship wise ? - Am i ready for this commitment ? - Have we picked the right house/area ? - Have we set aside cash for any unforseen problems ? Luckily the answer to all of these questions seems to be yes. But it is definately a time in life where you could make some serious and long lasting screw ups if you dont approach it carefully and systematically.

I'm going through the house buying process at the moment. Hopefully it goes well. I have also taken quite a few physical risks. I have been riding BMX and mountain bikes for years. Tried some big stuff. Reached some high speeds. I have also driven a Lamborghini at over 200. But that felt pretty safe and not risky since it was in an appropriate location.

That was nearly three years ago, and we're still together. HAH ! Yeah i have spoken with Willow a few times on the forum in different topics. Clever girl (Wow, didnt mean that in a condiscending or patronising way). Did you two actually meet through neo ? If so thats pretty awesome. And @ Ben73, I made it sound a bit dramatic, but moving out is actually a really exciting time, when i look back all i see are the postive aspects. Best of luck with it all. I know it can be bloody stressful. Lawyers fee's, ARGH ! And how, when where did you drive a Lambo at 200 ? What kind of Lambo, who owned it ? TELL ME MORE ! Thats the kind of story which excited my pants department. And @ hiigiran, A relationship can be a really positive thing. I dont know what i'd be doing without my GF LOL. You'll most likely find that one day, probably the moment you least expect it. Hey, maybe Praetorian_Lord can give you some tips on meeting people ;-)
